Provide a description in the exception when an error is encountered parsing umask

Details

Description

Currently when there is a problem parsing a umask, the exception text is just the offending umask with no other clue, which can be quite confusing as demonstrated in HDFS-763. This message should include the nature of the problem and whether or not the umask parsing attempt was using old-style or new-style values.
